[ANN] Atox 0.2 released

[Magnus Lie Hetland]

What is it?
===========

Atox is a framework for automated markup. With it one can quite easily
write custom scripts for converting plain text into XML in any way one
wishes. Atox is normally used as a command-line script, using a simple
XML language to specify the desired transformation from text to
markup, but it is also possible to build custom parsers using the Atox
library. The name (short for ASCII-to-XML) is inspired by such UNIX
tools and system functions as atops and atoi.


What's new in 0.2?
==================

There's a new demo directory with some examples, which also double as
regression tests. There are two new features: Glued matching (for
making sure two features occur side by side) and indentation parsing
(for implementing nested structures based on indentation).

Although the indentation functionality works well, it is still a bit
experimental. Feedback is appreciated on how it might be expanded (or
modified) to be of more practical use.


Where can I get it?
===================

Atox is hosted at SourceForge (http://atox.sf.net) and the current
release (0.2) is available for download via its project page
(http://sf.net/projects/atox).
